This model will eventually crash. It's simple economics, the only reason people are accepting these unpaid jobs and the new pay for jobs is because they believe it will get them a paying job in the end. Once they realized they have been screwed, they will have learned a lesson, and others will catch on when they see talented people asking if you want to super size your french fry order! Eventually people will seek other professions creating a need and studios will have to open their wallets again to get people and the pendulum will swing back the other way.

Unfortunately, it always seems to take being boned, long hard and deep, for most to realize that business people do not do anything with the intent of increasing the standard of living of employees and providing any work, especially work that generates a profit for someone else for no pay is, in the long run, self-destructive.
